Oh my goodness:

“I’m a business man,” he’d told her. “No more, no less.”
“You’re a thief, Kaz.”
“Isn’t that what I just said?”

It got better....."

I loved this hahahah
(view spoiler)[ I really like the interaction between the characters so far, they're really good together :) They somehow remind me of The Raven Boys, idk.
Kaz is also kind of a dick lol (hide spoiler)]

I haven't read that book, unfortunately......and You're right about Kaz ;)

[Danique]

14%
There are so many things I want to know. (view spoiler)[ First of all, what really is the deal with Kaz his hands???? And what happend to his brother Jodie?
I also want to know the secret of that guard, which is apparently disgusting lol
I secretly feel like Kaz is the son of Van Eck, since he said something about ".. and no one knows what the deal is with his son" or something, and now I feel like he's missing and Kaz is the real son idkkkkk
Also this: "Our hopes rest with you Mister Brekker. If you fail, all the world will suffer for it" "Oh it's worse than that, Van Eck. If I fail, I don't get paid."
aahahhahaha (hide spoiler)]

Oeh can't wait hehe
I also wonder how to pronounce Inej? Like Ine or Inesh?

I was pronouncing it In-edge......which I'm pretty sure is wrong...

(view spoiler)[ Ah never mind, found Van Eck's son lol. I really like the story between Nina and Matthias, but I'm hoping it won't end badly :( (hide spoiler)]

Same, they've got a bit of an enemies to lovers vibe, but most of the book you can't tell how it's going to end....

[Danique]

Yess I love that!

[Aaron]

10%
(view spoiler)[ I’m struggling to get into this one. I don’t know enough about the characters to care about them so it just feels slow. I also don’t know what’s going on with the plot yet. (hide spoiler)]

Aaron wrote: "10%

Maybe you'll like it more once the action starts? I mean there's a lot of action already, but once the main action starts. I hope you like it!

[Trisha (semi-hiatus)]

Where are you both up to? And how are you liking it?

I'm really looking forward to reading Crooked Kingdom; would you both be up for BRing it?

[Danique]

I believe I’m at 30 something!
I’d love to BR it, but I’m really slow with reading lately, since all my jobs and school has started 🙄 So it might take me a lot longer, idk if you mind that?

[Trisha (semi-hiatus)]

I don't mind :)

How about we pick a date after you're done with this one, or one near the end of the month?

[Aaron]

Sorry guys I’m reading slowly at the moment too. I’m only up to about 15%. Hoping to get through a bit more today. I’d be up for reading Crooked Kingdom near the end of the month.

One near the end of the month sounds good! :)

“Close your eyes!”
“You can’t kiss me from down there, Wylan.” I hope they actually get together lol (hide spoiler)]

Me too,(view spoiler)[ I've been shipping them together, and I'm seriously hoping they get together! (hide spoiler)]

The end of the month it is! How about a date near the 26th? What do you think?

34% (view spoiler)[ I was thinking the same thing. It took a while but I’m getting into this now I sort of have a feel for the characters. (hide spoiler)]

Yeah, I wanted to take off a star for all the slowness in the beginning, but I felt that the rest of the story was absolutely worth it!

[Aaron]

62%
(view spoiler)[ I like all of the backstory parts with Kaz and Nina and Mathias. (I don’t know about the spelling of these names. I’m using the audiobook) It’s cool to see the journey of the characters. (hide spoiler)]

[Aaron]

Done
(view spoiler)[ That ending... What? So much happened that I’m not even sure I can process it all yet. I’ve got to read the next book now.
I’m not sure the ending makes up for the slowness at the start and I feel like the book could have been a bit shorter but I still enjoyed it. I think I’ll be rating this a solid 3 stars because of the story overall (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha (semi-hiatus)]

Aaron wrote: "Done

Glad you more or less enjoyed it!! (view spoiler)[ What I liked about the ending was that even though it was more or less a cliffhanger.....I didn't feel as if I wasn't going to survive if I didn't read the next one right now......so it was kinda a good cliffhanger.
I can't wait for the 26th to be here!! :) (hide spoiler)]

[Evelyn]

Will be joining this BR if that's okay :)

[Julianne]

Yes ofc it is! I'm about to start this book. Really excited, havent read it since it was released

[Julianne]

Chapter 3 (view spoiler)[ wow I forgot how awesome Kaz is. I just think he's so great!! I reread the Grisha trilogy and I don't think I liked any of those characters as much as I like Kaz!! (hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Part One
(view spoiler)[ It kinda had a slow start, but now it’s kicking off! I’m really liking it so far. Inej is definitely my favorite rn. She doesn’t take any crap! (hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Julianne wrote: "Chapter 3 [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ Right now, he is a major douche bag. To me at least. This is my first time reading SoC though. So I’m guessing there is some insight/ character development later on 😂 (hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Chapter 13
(view spoiler)[ Wow. Ok. He just scooped someone's eyeball out in like 2 seconds. Props.

There's definitely something between Kaz and Inej. Or at least there will be ;) (hide spoiler)]

[Julianne]

Natalie wrote: "Part One
[spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ yeah Inej is amazing! She has the best story (hide spoiler)]

Kaz(view spoiler)[ I think he's just really well written and well rounded. I definitely understand how you can think he's a jerkbag, but he is the one who has been planning everything to help the Dregs become so powerful (hide spoiler)]

Part 1 (view spoiler)[ okay I THINK this is almost the entire group finally together. Can't wait to see how their plan forms (hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Part Three
(view spoiler)[ At least we finally know Nina and Matthias’ story. There was definitely other ways Nina could’ve handled the other Grisha though. Ways that didn’t involve Matthias being in prison for a year. Why didn’t she just knock them out until they were on the boats? I’m sure she could’ve made up some explanation about it later when she went back to Ravka. (hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Part Four
(view spoiler)[ Kaz's backstory is so sad :( I understand him more now. But my question is how is he being any better than Rollins? He scams and steals from people like Rollins does. And I never would've thought that Jesper is Grisha. (hide spoiler)]

[Julianne]

Natalie wrote: "Part Three
[spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[I KNOW RIGHT? I can't believe she thought that was the only option for Matthias. I really enjoyed their backstory though. Especially Nina trying to do everything she can to stop them both from freezing to death! (hide spoiler)]

Part 3(view spoiler)[ this romance but not romance between Kaz and Inej is adorable but also makes me want to tear my hair out! Just tell her Kaz!!
(hide spoiler)]

[Natalie]

Julianne wrote: "Natalie wrote: "Part Three

[spoilers removed]

Part 3 "

(view spoiler)[ Oh boy. The freezing part was hilarious! I love Nina's light heartedness and her jokes. The Kaz Inej romance/not romance is moving tooooo slow for me. I agree, Kaz just needs to bite the bullet and tell her something . But I guess I get why he doesn't. (hide spoiler)]

[Julianne]

Natalie wrote: "Part Four
[spoilers removed]"

Kaz (view spoiler)[ I think Kaz thinks of himself as better than Rollins only because Rollins is the reason Kaz ended up this way (in Kaz's mind). If they hadn't lost their money, they wouldn't have been on the streets and gotten sick etc... Kind of like you create your own nemesis you see in superhero media. (hide spoiler)]

Part 4 (view spoiler)[ I had to read that last page several times to understand it properly. So Rollins was captured by the Fjerdans too?? I felt like Kaz was there to kill Rollins, but I don't remember that much from this book honestly! (hide spoiler)]

[Evelyn]

Sorry I'm going so slow, I've been super busy with school :( anyways..
Part 1
(view spoiler)[ Liking this o far! In love with all the characters already, just the pacing is just a little too slow for my taste. I totally forgot why Matthias hates Nina so intrested to find out more.. (hide spoiler)]
